Don't have any idea if there is a connection but thought I would give you my info in case it might help you. I have Jane Bulger the wife of Nicholas Lalor. Their first child, Denis, was baptized at St. Patrick's in Kilkenny City in 1846. Their residence is shown as Poulgour. There is in Poulgour (on Griffiths) a James Bolger who we think could be her father. There are several Bolger and Bulger graves at St. Patrick's Cemetery. Hope this helps you in some way.... Donna
